Patient's question:
I have recently often felt some unclear liquid on my underwear at night, and there is some colorless liquid on my penis. When I had a thorough examination at the hospital, the doctor said I might have prostatitis. Now I want to know if it is bacterial or aseptic prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
To diagnose non-bacterial prostatitis or bacterial prostatitis, careful examination is required. Generally, a prostatic fluid test and a detailed ultrasound examination of the prostate are performed. Bacterial prostatitis requires the intake of anti-inflammatory drugs, while non-bacterial prostatitis is usually treated with traditional Chinese medicine. If you have prostatitis, you should avoid drinking beer and eating spicy foods to prevent clinical diagnosis from worsening. Drink more water, as prostatitis can be stabilized, but the treatment period is usually long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication should be used according to the symptoms.
